Kirk Broadfoot. I thought he had a very good game today for st mirren. He is a good strong tall central defender. He also passes the ball really well and is not frightened to wander forward either. I think this is the type of defender we need to replace dods. Dods is a really good defender but his passing and movement forward is nothing like broadfoot. I am not writing this saying we should try and sign broadfoot but of his standard is what we should be looking at. When we replace dods and whoever else leaves it is critical in my opinion to replace these players with even better quality if not we will not be moving forward but i do think the time has come for us to be ambitious and try and get some real quality players within the budget that the club has. I know the clubs budget is not great but the players are out there and it important somebody finds them

In my opinion the way to sort Black out is fine him 2 weeks wages after today and up till the end of the season fine him half wages for a yellow card and 2 weeks for a red. This will make him think a bit more and save the club some money aswell.

Is there anywhere on the web where you can actually see players from scotland/england that are out of contract in the summer or is there anywhere you can see players that are on the transfer list? Two players that i think we should keep our eye on is gavin rae and jason scotland although it looks if scotland is yogis no.1 target.

Firstly sorry for starting another thread on this subject but i feel that the current position we are in we have got to talk about it. Charlie is a man who has got Caley Thistle blood flowing through his veins. His commitment over the years to the club is second to none. Charlie is one of the best if not the best player to ever wear a caley thistle shirt. I have a lot of respect for Charlie and i do wish him well and hope he gets the club running on all cylinders again. However when Charlie was appointed manager of caley it did come as a big shock to me. As i said before his commitment and loyalty to the club is first class as a player he was first class but all this does not make you a good manager. When Charlie took over as manager i feel he maintained the standard of football right through till the end of last season. This season however has been a totally different story. We started the season off ok but things have gone to an all time low since then. There is problems at the club and over the last few weeks you can tell by player reactions. We are now a team who sit second bottom of the spl. We have forgotten how to play football, moral at the club is zero. I am really worried about the future of this club at the moment. As i said before i wish Charlie all the best and i hope he turns this bad spell around but i am sorry i just cant see this happening. I think Charlie should be given 5 more games to turn things around. We have Rangers H. falkirk A, St Mirren H, Aberdeen A and Hibs home for that 5 games and that takes us up to Jan 20th. If things have not improved after these games i think Charlie should be offered another job within the club and a new manager appointed. I think we need to make it 5 games so if Charlie cant turn things around then the new manager has still got time to dabble in the transfer market. One problem is there is a few players at the club who are not spl standard and we need to move them on. As i said before i dont think Charlie will turn things around and i think a new manager will give the place a shake that it needs. Finally i have two questions for everyone 1. Who if it comes to it should we be looking at to be our manager ? 2. With an estimated transfer budget what players do you think the club should look at to improve the current squad ? I think we need a good left sided midfielder with pace, Someone to pull the strings in centre of midfield and a good striker with pace.

what is the funniest thing you have heard from the crowd to a player or the ref or linesman at a caley game over the years ?
